The browser probably won’t let you send the username and password like that.

Camera for ActionTiles (Again...)

I can start the answer process by specifying the criteria: Based on current ActionTiles Compatibility Access to the image must be via http (preferably https). rtsp:// is not compatible. Basic HTML Authentication is no longer possible except in some alternative browsers. Chrome and Android Webview block “http(s)://user:password@address” for embedded sources. We hate that this happened. Thus, the only universal authentication must be as URI parameters (eg, ?user=x&pwd=y). The stream must by MJPEG (possibly FFMJPEG). Other formats tend to be shipped over RTSP or require a plug-in. Best if the camera can be configured with slower frame rates and/or resolution if you display multiple Media Tiles. If no MJPEG, then snapshot mode (JPG,…) works quite well… Maximum refresh of 1 sec…
